Hello horse lover! I have a problem and it is new to me. I recently got a TWHxSTDBD gelding and he is mounting my mare. Is this something that will go away after she is done with her cycle of fim being a new horse in the pasture? He has gotten aggressive with the other horses that is in with them. What should I do.

my gelding was gelded only a few months be for we bought him 6 years ago he is 14 now and still feels the need to mount my mares when they are in heat and egging him on.. So I have to say it just depends on when they were gelded even then some geldings show sallion mentalities even though they dont have the prized jewels so to speak..

How long ago was he gelded? It takes a few months for the hormones to get out of his system when a stud is gelded. Or they could have gelded him too late, especially if he was bred before.
Or they might not have castrated him right. If that's the case, it'll never go away.

"A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is ultimately to be at peace with himself.
What a man can be, he must be." Abraham Maslow, 1968
